Phthaloyl peroxide, PPO

Recent Literature

A flow protocol for the generation of phthaloyl peroxide in high purity (>95%)
can be used to bypass the need to isolate and recrystallize phthaloyl peroxide,
improving upon earlier batch procedures. The flow protocol for the formation of
phthaloyl peroxide can be combined with arene hydroxylation reactions.
